I'm loving this. The only problem (really, honestly, the only one) is that middle-clicking doesn't open a window in a new tab (actually, it doesn't do anything at all.) It renders everything Mozilla does (ie virtually everything), is very fast, and …

Quote: Originally posted by AirSluf Sorry to burst you bubble but the reconditioned DP 2.0's have been that price since long before xmas. The single 1.6/1.8's went down by $100 each when the dual 1.8s started shipping. Oh, ok. That's disappo…

I think there's a clue on Apple's store right now that the G5 PowerMac is on the verge of being updated. Currently reconditioned dual-2GHz units are being sold for $2,399.00. That's $600 cheaper than "new" prices and typically reconditioned prices a…

Quote: Originally posted by OCMG Before I upgraded I was running 10.2 on a Beige G3 with a 120GB Maxtor attached to an Acard 6260 ATA 66 Card. No problems at all. I have never tried this but I have heard of one person who installed OSX on a l…

Quote: Originally posted by Jared What exactly is your set up and how did you get it to burn? I thought iDVD does not record on non standard DVD-R drives? Yeah, I was disappointed to see that not only does it not burn on anything other than o…

The m-audio keyboard doesn't ship until the end of this month. Got GarageBand today. Playing with it, it appears frighteningly similar to the "trackers" that were popular in the late eighties/early nineties (remember OctaMED?) Of course, it's a …

I think I'm going to write my own operating system that runs under Windows so I can have polls about it on AppleInsider too.

Perhaps the solution is for Apple to charge new buyers of iLife $49, and also provide an upgrade version for existing buyers which it can sell for something trivial - $50 perhaps (that seems to be the price of a lot of media-only "free" software pac…

Quote: Originally posted by Aphelion A rack full of Apple branded blades hooked to thin clients would be an innovative corporate solution. It might be innovative, but who'd actually buy it? Off the top of my head, only a company starting fro…

Quote: Originally posted by Amorph No, it's standard practice. Ask any former Mac user in corporate who had their Mac thrown out the window and replaced with a Windows PC. Er, right. So this is about revenge, not switching? Quote: This is …

Quote: Originally posted by \\/\\/ickes Would you be happy if you bought a new P4 laptop but later found out that the chip is really a P3-XX with less than a hand full of P4 like specs added to it? [/B] If the "P3-XX" was superior in virtually…

Quote: Originally posted by Amorph The techs and developers who'd be interested in running the two side by side could probably set up a third-party KVM easily enough. As an aside, I'm getting seriously annoyed by the presumption in most Mac f…

Quote: Originally posted by Amorph I don't see the point of a KVM as a standard, built-in part. If you're going to switch, you're going to switch. If you aren't, you aren't. The techs and developers who'd be interested in running the two side …

Quote: Originally posted by cubist Rhumgod, side issue, I think I have office 2001 on one of my Macs somewhere; what makes it able to use Exchange? Does it work in Classic? And why is it "dreaded"? You can email me if you want to take it offline…

Quote: Originally posted by cubist There are inexpensive PS/2-to-USB adapters. I bought one ($15), thinking it would make my Mac work with my KVM. The keyboard connection works, but not the mouse. I'm thinking of trying another kind. KVMs a…

Quote: Originally posted by \\/\\/ickes For god sake... When did you forget that the G in G4 (G3, G5, etc..) stands for generation. This holds true for Apple, IBM, and Moto. So what sense is there in calling a chip, which model number is dire…

One thing to remember is that the cube is designed specifically for the look and form factor. Corporate entities are going to want something closer to a functionality spec than a visual spec. The "Cube" is really unsuitable for the same reason that …

This is a trademark. Quick reference: Trademarks are distinctive names and logos identifying an entity, usually but not always commercial. A trademark's lifetime is that of the entity, as long as the trademark owner takes care to avoid letting…

Hard to believe on the face of it - Can they get a 2G drive cheap enough that it, plus all the associated electronics in an iPod, could be sold for $99? As I understand it, the costs of making a hard drive are generally fixed and are physical siz…
